Missouri Holstein Association Annual Meeting

MO Dairy hosted the state dairy meetings at the Oasis Hotel in Springfield, MO. All dairy groups were invited to participate.

MO Dairy hosted a seminar with the theme "Get Outside your Fencerows" on Friday along with their annual business meeting. Topics included The 2023 Farm Bill, Federal Milk Market orders, Grant writing, udder dissection, Benchmarking, and Farm labor and stress management. Friday night also was a social event with all breeds presenting awards and a fun time of cornhole. There were three divisions in the tournament: adult, family and youth.

The Holstein Juniors were involved in a Princess and Miss competition along with a speech runoff and their annual meeting. The Holstein Association and other breeds hosted their annual meetings. See highlights below.

Back at the Oasis again for 2023 in Springfield and a format that is closer to what we have traditionally had over the years provided for a larger crowd. There were several meetings going on during the two days and it was enjoyable to see those who were able to attend to talk and discuss items of business in our industry.
Highlights of the Missouri Holstein Convention are as follows. Or you can click on the link below to read the convention book and complete meeting minutes.

  • MEMBERSHIP DUES – Bylaw amendment: All Dues are $50 for 2023 (Farm or Associate-Pulsator included).
  • Holstein USA Field Representative: Introduced Jason Ewing as new MO Field Representative.
  • State Fair: Jr ownership deadline is now JULY 1. Altering open show schedule some to accommodate judges. Looking for someone to pick up the milk so it is not wasted. Contact AmyJo with suggestions. Tim Ewing memorial scholarship will be awarded for first time in 2023 being funded by cornhole fun night.
  • MU Extension: Reagan Bluel is only statewide dairy specialist. Ted Probert’s position is still open and trying to fill. Requirements are masters and general agriculture knowledge in addition to dairy. University has just approved that they would wait for someone to finish their thesis if the right person.
  • MU Dairy-Foremost: Reagan Bluel reported the animal science department head has approved the sale of the Holstein Farm (where heifers and dry cows are housed). The income is supposed to be used to offset the dairy debt and be re-invested in the dairy operation. MU is also liquidating 142 heifers. MU hoping to hire a specialist in repro and genetics.
  • MO Dairy: The board is working on a strategic planning process on how they can be effective for the states producers. Surveys will be going out to get opinions. Newly hired legislative assistants are Tony Benz, a private lobbyist, and Casey Wasser, MO Soybean, has waived his fee to assist MO Dairy.
  • Awards Committee: Renamed award – “John Cooper Distinguished Service Award”. Cow of the Year – Ties may be awarded.

  • Hospitality Room - We once again had a hospitality room hosted by Ted and Pam Probert Friday afternoon and following the cornhole tournament. Since we've had this a few years now, it is getting a little easier to find. It is really wonderful that our association really does enjoy each other's company as they catch up on the past years events. This is a tradition we hope to continue!
  • Field Day: Looking forward to visiting Schoen Farms, Oakridge, MO, this year.
  • Pulsator: Participating in Midwest Holsteins 2 issues a year (March and September). Took suggestions on ways to improve.

Several issues Dairy Producers need to
Express their Opinions Regarding!

1. USDA Seeks Public Comment on Proposal to Strengthen Animal Disease Traceability Regulations
Comment period ends March 20, 2023!

The United States Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) is proposing to amend animal disease traceability regulations and require electronic identification for interstate movement of certain cattle and bison. APHIS is also proposing to revise and clarify record requirements. These changes would strengthen the Nation’s ability to quickly respond to significant animal disease outbreaks. Major animal disease outbreaks hurt our ranchers and farmers and all those who support them along the supply chain, threaten our food security, and impact our ability to trade America’s high quality food products around the world. Rapid traceability in a disease outbreak could help ranchers and farmers get back to selling their products more quickly; limit how long farms are quarantined; and keep more animals from getting sick.

The proposed rule would require official eartags to be visually and electronically readable for official use for interstate movement of certain cattle and bison. It would also revise and clarify certain record requirements related to cattle, including requiring official identification device distribution records to be entered into a Tribal, State, or Federal database, and available to APHIS upon request.

Click here to make a public COMMENT and to view the proposed rule in the Federal Register at.
Public comments may submitted by March 20, 2023. APHIS will review all comments and address them in a final rule.

An excerpt of the information on the ruling from the APHIS information:
Many of the commenter's opposed to the proposal were concerned with the perceived costs imposed on producers and livestock markets of having to purchase electronic reading equipment and computer systems. We do not agree with the commenters regarding the magnitude of costs to the domestic cattle and bison industry. Many of these commenter's were not aware that the official RFID tags are easily read visually and therefore could be used as they are currently using non-EID tags without the added expense of purchasing reading equipment. Also, large categories of cattle, such as feeder cattle or cull cattle going to slaughter, are not subject to the official identification requirements and would not require official eartags. We address the costs in greater detail in the regulatory impact analysis accompanying this proposed rule. Click here for link to this information and complete list of expressed concerns:


2. FDA Draft Guidance for Industry: Labeling of Plant-Based Milk Alternatives as "Milk"
Comment period ends April 24, 2023!

February 22, 2023: FDA Guidance on Plant-Based Beverages' use of dairy terms is a first step, NMPF says while calling for complete transparency in labeling.

In response to today’s FDA guidance on plant-based beverages, which guides manufacturers of plant-based beverages to disclose their nutrient inferiority and acknowledges the public health concern of nutritional confusion over such beverages, the National Milk Producers Federation, which has led the fight for labeling transparency, released the following statement:

From Jim Mulhern, President and CEO of the National Milk Producers Federation:

“Today’s FDA announcement is a step toward labeling integrity for consumers of dairy products, even as it falls short of ending the decades-old problem of misleading plant-based labeling using dairy terminology. By acknowledging both the utter lack of nutritional standards prevalent in plant-based beverages and the confusion over nutritional value that’s prevailed in the marketplace because of the unlawful use of dairy terms, FDA’s proposed guidance today will provide greater transparency that’s sorely needed for consumers to make informed choices."

“Still, the decision to permit such beverages to continue inappropriately using dairy terminology violates FDA’s own standards of identity, which clearly define dairy terms as animal-based products. We reject the agency’s circular logic that FDA’s past labeling enforcement inaction now justifies labeling such beverages “milk” by designating a common and usual name. Past inaction is poor precedent to justify present and future inaction."

“We also would like to thank consumers, who sales data show drank fewer fake dairy beverages in 2022 than in 2021, part of a broader awakening to the bogus marketing of fake milk manufacturers that have been accepted uncritically for far too long. Despite the misinformation spun in advertisements and media, consumers are seeing through the marketing and recognizing these beverages for the fakes that they are. But consumers shouldn’t have to make choices in a marketplace that’s less than fully transparent, and until the federal government fully lives up to its mission, NMPF will continue to lead the battle for labeling transparency.”
